Discusses two massacres that occurred in 1982 as part of the government's anti-insurgency campaign in Guatemala, including the history of the beginning of the government repression in 1952. Since 1993 the mass graves of these victims have begun to be exhumed in order to provide proper burial. The Monuments to Truth project raises funds to help surviving victims create monuments to commemorate their lost loved ones.
